abstract:
This legal philosophy research on conscientious objection follows four main guidelines: a historical-philosophical reconstruction both of the moral idea of conscience and of the emerging contrast between law and conscience; the distinction between conscientious objection and other traditional borderline concepts (the right of resistance and civil disobedience); a general legal theory of conscientious objection as positive right; a widespread analysis of Italian context, examining in depth recognized and possible hypothesis of objection
